Yeah, 'The IT Crowd' is hilarious. 'The Work Outing ("I'm disabled")' episode, season 2 ep.1, is one of the most memorable sit-com episodes of any show ever, imho. The whole 'turn it off and on' joke never gets old to me, because that's exactly how the IT department where I worked handled 90+% of the problems. I assume this is the norm everywhere.

Watched Five Easy Pieces and Days of Heaven both are very good and would highly recommend.

Unthinkable was atrocious... wtf recommended that ITT? Like Saw 6 meets a bottom-barrel ep from season 5 of 24. Carrie Anne Moss is just the worst.

Re: Netflix "Watch Instantly"

just saw "the exam" in newly arrived movies and "the hearbreakers"

the exam got a better than average rating, and i thought the psychology of it was interesting. 8 people are stuck in an exam room to take a premium position equivalent to CEO or something like that. They have 80 minutes to complete "the exam," which happens to be one unknown question, and they can't break the three conditions given by the vigilator.

heartbreakers is a french film that stars johnny depp's wife/gf. It was funny and clever.

Someone recommended The Cove to me today. I know I've seen it recommended before, but I've started watching a ton of docus. Is The Cove worth getting at?

I disagree (I did not recommend, btw) about the film. I thought it raised some interesting questions about where a society may need to draw a line as far as human rights go in order to stop a terrorist attack (not just a plane or a bus, but an entire metropolis). I thought it was a refreshing change from the incessant Hollywood "government bad, terrorist misunderstood" schlock that's been coming out since the debate about Guantanomo began.

Saw Breaker Morant last night. Decent court marshal drama in 1900 South Africa. Based upon a true story
